THE BEAR & THE HOT CHICK were both solid picks. The hot chick was more flavorful than burn your mouth spicy - so if you're not too tolerant of heat you may be able to handle it well. Our server, Kori, was helpful in mentioning top picks, as it was our first time here. Ambiance was relaxed, but more upscale of a bar. They did have table for dining as well. Accessibility - to get in, you have to up half a flight of steps, but once in, the floor is concrete and one level and wheelchair / walker friendly, Women's bathroom was clean & well kept. read more

Foodie Alert! My friend and I recently dined here on a Monday for their holiday pop-up. I was so excited to go because I've seen all of the IG and TikTok videos of the decor and fun-looking drinks. I arrived only to find out the pop-up is only available Wednesday-Sunday and requires a separate ticket purchase. So unfortunately, we didn't get to try any of the festive cocktails. However, I really wanted to like the food, but it was so bland and lacked seasoning. My friend and I ordered the following items: Matchatini (0/5) Trash 75 (3/5) Brussels Sprouts (5/5) Mozzarella Log Jammer (2/5) Pasta Zepp and Fried Chicken (2/5) New Orleans Tasso (4/5) To me, the food and drink didn't live up to the hype. The service was good, but overall, the food and drink experience was just okay. read more

Best thing I ever had in my life. I got the pesto pasta bread. It was like 17 bucks. I will drive there again just for that.‍‍ read more

The Operators Club - TEXAS FRENCH TOAST - Sports Bars Near Me - Dallas, Texas

Service was prompt and nice! Food was big but just decent , but price points were ehhhh. They had a happy hour menu , but no prices .... we were just told drinks are a "couple dollars cheaper" which on the bill it came to a $2 discount..... Got a salad , and one drink (during happy hour) and the bill was $48 And they do not have no parking lot, so find street parking or pay * Response to owner since he tried it * - The drink was an old fashioned which isn't pictured and only a $2 discount taken off the ticket, so if it was supposed to be $3 that is yet another issue - my ticket also had a mandatory 20 or 25 % (it was definitely in the 20s ) service charge - the lack of price transparency and guidance given by YOUR wait staff isn't my problem , but YOURS. If I was being petty I would knock it down some more for the owner response, but I'm not read more

Stopped in before a show and had some of the tastiest and well prepared food. Had originally seen this on TikTok and had to give it a try. The pasta stuffed sandwiches and the mozzarella cheese log were amazing. We went with the pesto sauce and grilled chicken. It is plenty for two in my opinion. I am glad we did not order are own. It was perfectly dusted with garlic and parmesan cheese. We also ordered a side of brussel sprouts. They were seasoned in a nice tangy Asian sauce with red peppers and peanuts. It was also a nice sized portion. To close it out and not quit early we finished with the waffle sandwich with locally sourced cinnamon ice cream. Everything was amazing and I can hardly wait to come back. Only pro tip I would recommend is looking at their menu online or through their app. We would not have seen all of the sides and I feel it had more details along with photos. Photos make ordering and expectations even better. They were busy but even with that the service was above average and quick. read more

The ambiance, layout, food, and friendliness of the establishment is amazing! Our group of eight came last night to enjoy dinner, and were promptly sat and greeted. Our server took incredible care of us. The food here is excellent! We ordered the Mozzarella Log and nachos as appetizers. Both were delicious, and the nachos had a great kick of heat to them. Our group ordered a variety of food from the incredible and just cool Pasta Zepps to salads and sandwiches. The cocktails were also on point. I highly recommend this place, and I would gladly visit on a return visit to the Dallas area. People of Dallas, seriously why aren't you here more often? This place is awesome! read more

Excellent food and service. Not healthy though Was a ghost town on Thursday evening though. Not a place for excitement.

We came here to watch the F1 race which is awesome that they're opening up for the fans. Though the channels and sound change right on the dot at 8am, they do fix it right away. They also state they have their whole menu available but we learned that unless you order brunch items (and that, with no modifications), they'll get it wrong and you'll get the excuse, "it's breakfast" time. We modified the breakfast burrito to chicken (I don't eat beef) and got maybe like 4 pieces of chicken (and that's being generous). I ordered a salad that should've had artichokes, red onions, olives, shrimp, etc but it was 4 pieces of shrimp and mainly lettuce with some tomatoes. When we asked our server, he looked baffled and came back to tell us that what's listed on the menu is the ingredients to the dressing? Wtheck?! No one lists ingredients to a dressing as the salad description. Later, the manager, came by with the ingredients separately, apologizing and stating the folks in the back aren't used to ppl ordering not breakfast. Maybe not offer the full menu read more

Great service! Fun atmosphere and delicious food! We were seated immediately and the dining area is spacious and modern. Despite the open air feel- dining was intimate. We had so much fun ordering the pasta!! Every thing was delicious. Bathrooms were clean! Entire dining area was so cool to look at. Super friendly servers and everyone was happy. It was so sweet- the bartender made my daughter delicious Shirley temples. Order any pasta- it's incredible. I ordered the cheeseburger salad and the dressing and seasoning on the meat is legit. Super flavorful. Wifey had chicken picatta. *it's extremely lemon-y so if that's not your thing pass right on by* Kids ordered pasta. I was going to order appetizer sliders (3 come in an order) but opted for the cheeseburger salad instead the people next to us did order the sliders and they looked incredible and they are decently sized to be sliders. read more

Nice clean and holiday vibe for the winter. great staff and parking was not hard on a weekday with some meters right outside. The espresso Martini is pretty good and pleasing to Instagram too. I got the shrimp skewers and the charred lemon was a nice touch and the shrimp is well seasoned. I'd go back before the Mavs game or before going to the park during happy hour! read more

Tried to wander in on a weekday evening to find a sign saying closed for private event. Would have been cool if management managed that expectation online as I walked across town to check this spot out based on every available source (Google, Yelp, venue website) indicating it was open. Wandered over a day or two later on a weekday afternoon and had a couple drinks. Everything was good, nothing to write home about but solid and great pricing. Service was excellent. Wouldn't go out of my way for it (for a third time) but would gladly stop in again if I was nearby and thirsty. read more

We stopped by for dinner and had such a great time! The whole experience--from the atmosphere to the food--was spot on. The place has an energetic vibe that makes it perfect for a relaxed evening out or to catch a game on the big screens. Every dish we tried was packed with flavor and beautifully presented. The appetizers were crisp and fresh, and each main had a unique twist that made it stand out. The portions were generous, and everything tasted freshly made.Drinks were perfectly balanced and served quickly, with just the right mix of creativity and quality. You can tell a lot of thought goes into their menu, and it really pays off. Service was friendly and attentive, which made the whole visit even better. It's definitely one of those places you look forward to returning to--great food, fun energy, and a welcoming team. Highly recommend for anyone looking for a spot that gets everything right! read more

We saw this place on social media so we stopped by to try it. The atmosphere was nice. They had music playing in the background and seemed pretty friendly. We were handed our menus that were themed as Dossiers. The options were nice as well. Our appetizer was the Mozz Log which was a giant fried mozzarella cheese stick. It was awesome! We decided on the Roast Beef sandwich and the Alfred. We added grilled shrimp on the side of the Alfred. The servings were huge! We could have split them up a little. The flavors were great. The Alfred garlic bread was tasty and the pasta was excellent. We would live to stop by another time! read more

Our overall experience with Lillian was fantastic!!!! She was super friendly, had excellent recommendations, she was quick with our order and overall absolutely precious! We had the MOZZ LOG, Pasta and THE OPERATORS CLUB! Presentation was amazing, over all taste was great! The Americano was delightful! Make sure you ask for Lillian and have Rick pay a visit to your table to say hello! We did call Rick to our table because the much older waitress with the blonde pony tail is a BULLY! She more concerned with flexing her shoulders, snarky comments, causing awkward tension in the area of our dining experience. Again, thank you to LILLIAN AND Rick for ending our night out with laughs! read more

Drinks 10/10 (texas tea, cherry limeade, spicy senorita) Italian stalion 10/10 - this was huge! What the flock 10/10 - a very creative play on chicken and waffles, and the cheese waffle was Gochojang duck wings and trash can nachos were both 10s as well. These were the first great. Nachos we have had in years. It was so nice to have nachos with fresh ingredients, that were also massive! read more

It smells like sewage!!! Or boiled egg yolks. It's weird because it doesn't smell in the bathroom but by the bar. The decor was super cute, it looked like Santa was coming to town. The smell was horrible. The bartender said she didn't smell anything but it was most definitely sulfur like. read more

This is a pretty cool place to come get some eats and drinks. There is a bar area and restaurant seating. They also have a beautiful party area. The service here was super friendly from our server to the manager who came to the table and had a conversation with us. The motz block is death by cheese but in the best way. The chicken sandwich came out hot and crispy and had a good amount of meat compared to breading. If I was back in Downtown Dallas area I would go back. read more

They offer their sliders app for free with purchase of a Pasta Zepp....then they don't include the free sliders in your delivery order and you're just screwed. Not cool. Won't be ordering from here anymore. UPDATING REVIEW to show proof with a screenshot from my Uber orders that oh yes I did order the sliders, and you guys left them off. Uber gave me a measly $5 credit. Hardly covered the tip. read more

My friend and I stopped by the Operators Club several hours before a Dallas Stars game near the beginning of the month and had a fun time pregaming here. We arrived around 3:45 on a Tuesday afternoon and it was understandably pretty dead inside; there were only two other parties in the huge sports bar-esque seating area. Our servers were all super nice though and were able to answer all our questions about the menu and drinks. Happy hour here is $2 off cocktails, wines, and non-canned beers, so my friend and I each got a delicious cocktail to start off. My friend quite enjoyed her Trash 75 and I really liked the Haute Star Martini - both drinks actually come with an extra shot of alcohol on the side for you to pour in as you continue drinking. I thought that was an interesting touch. For food, we split the butcher & farmer board since my friend was feeling super hungry, and I got the Operators Club. The board was pretty standard fare, though I quite enjoyed the inclusions of honeycomb, sausage, and fresh fruit & veggies. My jaw definitely dropped when the club was brought out - the presentation itself was already amazing, but the size of the sandwich truly blew me away. The fries below were also seasoned super well, very truffly, which I liked a lot. I kid you not though, the sandwich was so big that I ate it for not one but TWO subsequent lunches in the following days. That's how generous the portion size was. Definitely recommend this sandwich! A quick pop in the toaster oven and the bread stayed soft yet crisp even days later. I wasn't hungry enough for the pasta zeppelins but I have a feeling I'll be back at some point before another Stars game and have to try one of those. And if you check in on Yelp you get a 20% discount on food which makes this place even more of a deal. read more

Service was horrendous. I sat at bar by myself and several seats down was a couple. It took nearly 5 minutes for the bartender to acknowledge me then another 10 min for him to take my order. Once served I was in need of water and actually had to ask another employee for help. They replied the manager was showing the bartender something about an upcoming group. Shame on the manager -- no clue! He distracted his employee who already is poor at what he does. A definite training opportunity for both. Perhaps the bartender will now be self aware of why he received only 10% tip. They had one bartender serving the entire facility. There was one group party of approx. 20 and in the main area only a few tables. At the bar, 3. Makes you wonder why the manager has just one person trying to cover all, albeit he was not that busy. I get cutting cost to maximize margin, but at what sacrifice. I will never go back. BTW - food mediocre, typical bar food. read more

Very nice place, clean. Their rice service was great but the food was a bit overpriced, come prepared to spend at least $85-$100.

I've visited twice and tried two different meals. The first time, I had the New Orleans Tasso (with added shrimp) and the Alfredo in the dish. The New Orleans Tasso is absolutely my favorite - I love the bucatini noodles and the crawfish cream sauce. The dish is made perfect because of these two elements. On my second visit last week, I tried the Pasta Zepplin Alfredo, but unfortunately, I didn't enjoy it. I was excited by the grand display but found it lacked seasoning. I ended up switching it out for the New Orleans Tasso again, and it did not disappoint! I definitely recommend coming here - the service is welcoming, it hasn't been busy, and the New Orleans Tasso is a standout dish. read more

Another place in Dallas we found on a whim. At first we were skeptical because no one was really in the restaurant. Also, me being somewhat vegetarian there was not much for me to choose from when it came to savory dishes but thankfully they had something for me they could make. They made migas and I added potatoes on the side and the migas definitely HIT! They give you large portions too which is good, definitely had leftovers-pretty much all of us! Service was ok, it seemed like the first waitress didn't understand what I wanted and kept having to go back to the kitchen to ask questions until another waitress took over. The ambiance was very chill, not busy which was good for us because we were hungry and didn't want to wait hours for good food! read more
